Tips and Tricks for Cooking A Whole Chicken In An Air Fryer

If you’re ready to embark on your journey towards mastering the art of cooking a whole chicken in an air fryer, here are some essential tips and tricks to ensure your success:

1. Preparation is Key: Make sure to remove any giblets from inside the chicken and pat the chicken dry. This helps the seasonings stick better and promotes a crispier skin.
2. Season Well: Don’t be shy with your seasonings. Rub your chicken inside and out with a mix of herbs and spices. For an extra flavor boost, you can also stuff the cavity with aromatics like garlic, lemon, and fresh herbs.
3. Avoid Overcrowding: Ensure there is enough space around the chicken in the air fryer basket. This allows the hot air to circulate freely, ensuring an even cook and crispy skin all around.
4. Temperature and Time: Cooking times can vary based on the size of the chicken and the model of your air fryer. As a general guideline, cook your chicken at 360°F (182°C). Start with the breast-side down for the first half of cooking to protect it from drying out, then flip it for the remainder of the time.
5. Check Doneness: The safest way to check if your chicken is cooked is by using a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach at least 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part of the thigh, not touching the bone.
6. Let it Rest: Once cooked, let your chicken rest for about 10 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a juicier chicken.

By following these tips, you’ll be able to serve up a deliciously moist and flavorful whole chicken cooked right in your air fryer, transforming a simple meal into a delightful feast.
